Description changed by Otto42:

Old description:

> People tend to upload their themes to the theme upload page
> (https://wordpress.org/themes/upload/) thinking they're uploading for
> their site. Some more messaging might help clarify this on the Upload
> page.

New description:

 This ticket was originally to add a new description to the uploader.
 Ticket #1514 was about adding a checkbox to confirm licensing and such.

 Since these are both about changing the uploader page in similar ways,
 then let's consolidate the ticket to any relevant changes to prevent the
 problem of people uploading themes that are not theirs, possibly from
 confusion related to themes acquired from elsewhere and intended to be
 uploaded to their own sites.

 Changing description and checkbox have been suggested. Other suggestions
 are welcome.
